Well, if you made it without specifying any non-default options you're not telling me about, you should initdb on the new drive (if you haven't already), create any roles you had in the old database which you want in the new one, create the database with the name you want it to have, and run psql against that database using the file created by pg_dump. -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
